Right, but before that you have quite awhile of a animated fireball that is actively trying to home in on your and eat your brains. Plus any flammable structures he comes in contact with, up to and including your boarded up windows, will also likely catch fire.
Just all around bad scene... Not good |
But you are over-looking an important fact: Sometimes comedy is its own reward.

I know that the trench spikes are brought up in zombie discussions a lot however originals in good condition are hard to come by and are expensive (at least 400 U.S. dollars). Isn't a rondel dagger similar in that it has more or less a spike instead of a blade and quality remakes are easily obtainable.

A wayfarer should not walk unarmed,
But have his weapons to hand:
He knows not when he may need a spear,
Or what menace meet on the road.

[quote="William P"]max brooks makes the claim these trench spikes were designed to pierce steel helmets of ww1 i cant help but think thats completely wrong[quote]
Oh he is most definitely wrong. Such weapons could hardly pierce medieval iron helmets, let alone helmets made of modern steel.

This sometimes sounds wacky to me but may I recommend...
A Russian-made S.K.S. carbine. Zombies will die instantly when its bullets penetrate their heads
A Type 19 Company Grade Japanese Cavalry Sword. A zombie would not die if its belly had been slashed but it will if its neck slashed

I like the 'essential' bottle opener on the shovel blade, so you can pop the lid on a beer after decapitating your zombies......practicool!

i hink i can speak for everyone here when i say OUCH.
except i hink he shovel blade should be lik on older E tool wih an angular, pointed tip, a anguler edged shovel helps dig and penetrate harder ground easier, and if sharpened makes a much nastier weapon.

|

Zombies don't like water, so the base of operation would have to be on water, a souped-up houseboat, and when you need to dock for some reason high pressure water cannon should do the trick, watch the loose dead articulations fly all over the place, and it's ecologically friendly too ! BUT, for the plan to work, you've got to love eating seafood, those with seafood allergies best not apply.
